"The houses are to be cut and fitted in Canada, and shipped to England ready to be erected. Building experts who hare had experience in this work in Canada and America are already on their way to London to take charge of the building operations. Three hundred houses are now ready, and will be shipped at once. The work will proceed sa rapidly as trans- portation facilitio, allow.

"The plot on Edgware road, which oovers 117 acres, will be laid out like the modern additions to American cities, Wida graceful, sweeping streets will be out through it, coment footwalks will be constructed, a large park will be left in the centre, and every modern civio - provement will be provided. The houses will be built on spacious plots, and will be twenty or thirty feet apart. No two bonses will be alike.

"People in England." sontinued Mr. Sutherland, “when they bear of wooden | houses, come at once to the conclusion that [ they will be some sort of Arme hut affair.

MARIE TEMPEST ON THEATRE PRIORS."

INSISTED ON REDUCTIONS.

Mi Marie Tempest last week addressed the following letter to the Shanghai papers:-

Sir-It has been my practice through- out my career to leave business matters to my people and to content myself by attending to my performances, to the per formances of my colleagues and to the general mise en scene of the theatre.

Suficient to the artiste, is the evil thercol-unt since I arrived in Shanghai my attention has been drawn to the feeling here against what is termed four excessive prices" by a series of indignant and apparently sincers letters addressed to me personally, so for the first time in my life I have gone outside what I have made my own province and have insisted that the managemant shall reduce the prices to the normal-Shangai level to meet the popular outery.

If the concession should result in the over-crowded boises which my corros. pondents promise I shall be only too glad, as such a result will completely justify the unusual attitude which I have felt compelled to adopt towards my busines managers in these very unusual circum stances.!

I shall be glad if you will give this letter prominence in your next issue-I am, etc.,

MARIE TEMPEST.

NEED OF MEN FOR THE INDIAN ARMY.

ADVENTURE GOES A-BEGGING.

A paragraphist in & Home paper writes

Is the spirit of high adventare declin.. ing, or is it merely that youth is suffer ing from the reaction after war? For the first time in England's long association with the East there is a critical shortage of candidates for Ladian Army petirdig sions. The life is one that should have a stirring appeal to English youth The pay is good, the opportunities for madag carcer are almost unlimited, and the country is one of the most wonderful on the face of the earth Yet the military authorities are almost at their wits end because of the dearth of cadets.

There never was a time," writes a friend in Calcutta, when good men were more urgently needed for the Indian Army. The frontier situation grows more critical every day and the war has so depleted the commissioned ranks that the chances of rapid advancement are more numerous than ever they were. Yet Bimin HQ cannot get a tithe of the men it What is the matter with the young men of Great Britain 20
